Is the prayer of one whose tongue was used by a jinn during ruqyah valid if she was in a state of purity (wudu'), did not lose consciousness, and did not renew her wudu' before praying?
The ablution is valid as long as the questioner did not lose consciousness and no other nullifier of ablution occurred. Consequently, the Asr prayer is valid. Sheikh Ibn Baz, may Allah have mercy on him, was asked about the ruling on the ablution of those who experience moments of unconsciousness, and he replied that it involves a detailed explanation: if it is something minor that does not remove consciousness or prevent the sensation of impurities, then it does not harm. However, if the unconsciousness prevents one from feeling what exits from them, such as someone who is intoxicated or afflicted with a disease that has caused them to lose consciousness and become comatose, then their ablution is nullified, similar to fainting.
